Films on 4HD this weekend [updated]

Last week's line up was somewhat low brow, but this week's promises something for most. A Leo DiCaprio double bill on Saturday evening: 7pm Titanic, 10.35pm The Departed. Sunday evening at 10.05 has the excellent Road To Perdition (Tom Hanks, Paul Newman and Jude Law).
I watched 4HD's Saving Private Ryan at the weekend. Stunning picture quality. A shame that it took up almost 16 hours of my V+. Anyone planning to record Titanic will need a similar amount spare, maybe even a little more. Come on Virgin, offer us some larger disc capacity if you're serious about HD and don't want folk trying some DIY upgrades on their boxes.

Update: and the following weekend has Walk The Line and Rendition on the Saturday and 28 Weeks Later on the Sunday.
